It's a great time to try cloth diapers!

Yep that is a giraffe on my baby's butt!
 Cloth butts are adorable! Cloth diapers are awesome! They're better for your baby, better for your wallet and lets face it they're so stinkin cute! Who can resist! AND The best part is that today's cloth diapers are not your mama's or gramma's cloth diapers! There's no stinky vinyl, no fancy folding techniques, diaper pins are optional, and no dunking poopy diapers in the toilet! There is a ton of info on the net about cloth! One of my favorite info places is All About Cloth Diapers. There has never been a better time to try cloth diapers! Cloth diapers are the easiest they've ever been, and disposable diapers are more TOXIC than ever before! Cloth diapers are fun, healthy, cheap and easy to make, and disposables are boring, monotonous, full of chemicals and cost a small fortune! Need I go on?

Another great reason to try them is the giveaway going on right now! You can enter to win a free diaper making pattern. The giveaway is for a Rocket  Bottoms diaper pattern, and is done at the Crazy 4 Cloth blog. They're fun and easy to make! Plus you can even use old receiving blankets or trendy t-shirts to make the absorbent part of the diaper.

For the outside you'll need PUL, a special water proof fabric, and I have some for a great price on my hyena cart store, Windy Willow Pond.  I have a friend who also sells diaper making fabrics on hyena cart, named Monika and her store is Diaper Fabric Fanatic. With diaper fabrics easily available for cheap or free, and now a free diaper pattern, why not start making your own diapers today! Save lots of money, deck out your sweety in something that really reflects their cuteness and feel good about protecting their health. See for yourself why so many mama's try cloth and never go back!
